Game 1, Round 1 : Los Angeles Lakers #7 @ Denver Nuggets #2 (0-0)
After playing twice in Western Conference finals in the past 4 seasons, the Nuggets will face the Lakers this time already in the first round! The team where played KCP leading in all these LAL-DEN playoff games 8-1 so far

Can't see the Flakers winning more than 1 game in the series. Even with a fresher AD and LBJ, time within a seven (five) game series will wear them out, probably AD will get a hang-nail and miss 3 of the games....but I will enjoy trouncing them one more time on the way to ANOTHER CHAMPIONSHIP !
Go Nuggets !!
Go Nuggets !!

They have 2 HOF members still league TOP3 on their PF and C positions, with more useful players than last season. Because of LBJ's age and AD's health, I think they are more dangerous in 1st round than in WCF (last season they beat #2 seed Memphis and defending champions GSW before weak resistance vs Nuggets). For me crucial is to take a 2-0 lead at home early.

They had both TOP3 players last year and got swept, our bench will only have to play 8-10mins a game like last year, so that should help us out. CB looks like he's stepping it up, hope PWat can do what CB did last year.

Well, LBJ is a year older but I'll have to concede he's still an immense talent. AD just coming off a back spasm injury and missed a game because of a headache....he's always been fragile but he has played Jokic tougher than most. Getting 4 days off before the 1st game was a gift from The Gods....er, Silver, protecting his flagship. Still, we're gonna be rested, we're still entering our Prime, and know what it take to win a Championship. I'll stand by my predictions of a Gentleman's Sweep.

-3 on halftime is good considering -14 at one point. Winning this game can be key to this series.

Our starting lineup when healthy and in shape was the best in the league.

Refs will be an issue the whole series IMO, 19-6 is a pathetic disparity that the League will just ignore
